GRINNING BEGGAR’S PADDY ROCK: SEASON 21, EPISODE 05 – THE LAW OF LIONS

  • So… we might be on Episode #4 or #5, but it doesn’t matter! The important part is that there is a new show, finally! I can make excuses, but the bottom line is I am just lazy. Regardless today’s show is a real banger. I figured being that Lion’s Law was about to tour the US, and there are a lot of killer supporting bands so I figured this would make a good show. As it runs out it made for a fantastic show. Not all the bands are supporting acts, but all the tunes are awesome.
